File a WebIDL issue to add the DOMException names WebRTC needs

[foolip]

The exception name is TBD in most places, but one place uses IdpError.

Please file an issue or pull request similar to whatwg/webidl#85 with the DOMException names this spec will used.

This came up in https://codereview.chromium.org/1661493002/

I think these have been addressed in tip-of-tree and should be visible with the next editor's draft publication to github.io.

[alvestrand]

Adam will close this one when the new editors' draft with the fixes is pushed.

So, in the end will no new DOMException names at all be needed? And where can I read the tip-of-tree version online?

@foolip https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/ but it's not updated frequently enough.

What I do: Click "Code" tab above, then on "Latest commit xxx n days ago", then on View next to "webrtc.html", then Raw, then replace in URL "raw.githubusercontent.com" with "rawgit.com", then disable mixed-content protection.

E.g. https://rawgit.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/1949648d8cfc109bbc41a787a868adf16ce7af59/webrtc.html

Thanks @jan-ivar, it looks like the spec now uses NotSupportedError, NotReadableError and OperationError.

IdpLoginError is the only one that still sticks out to me. Although given its context, maybe it doesn't need to be a real error? @martinthomson

[burnburn]

@martinthomson, would like your thoughts on jan-ivar's question. I had the same question.

[martinthomson]

I think that it probably isn't an error. Maybe try to address that in a different issue though.

[dontcallmedom]

so it sounds like this issue can be closed, and maybe @jan-ivar could raise a new one on whether IdPLoginError needs to be a real error.

[foolip]

I'm OK with closing this if a new issue to sort out https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-pc/#sec.idp-loginneeded is filed. Two things seem in need of some attention:

1. Use of IdpLoginError without adding that to WebIDL (i.e. this issue, it was originally IdpError)
2. "If the rejection object also contains a loginUrl attribute, this value will be passed to the application in the idpLoginUrl attribute." What does this mean? The loginUrl attribute isn't mentioned anywhere else, and the object with which the promise is rejected is a supposedly a DOMException which doesn't have that attribute.

[jan-ivar]

@foolip that sounds like the right information. Want to file the issue?

I'd be delighted: #555
